She just won the endorsement of the Republican party, so she is the official candidate for US Senate against AG Richard Blumenthal. "Connecticut Republicans have endorsed former World Wrestling Entertainment executive Linda McMahon for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Democrat Chris Dodd." www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/05/21/richard-blumenthal-wins-c_n_585739.html"McMahon says she's going to "lay the smackdown" on Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal in November."

Three things: To Buh-Ryan, if she wins, expect WWE to stay exactly the same or maybe even a little less toned-down. If anything happens that is deemed "Controversial" by the moronic Politicians, she can kiss re-election good-bye when that time comes. Slappy, she ran for a Seat on the Conn. School Board, so I think that's why TV-PG was introduced at the time it was. That way WWE would have been "safe" long enough for her to not face criticism for her Husband running mature programming at the time. I really hope she loses. I know it's TV-PG for Advertisers as well, but if Linda wasn't in Politics, I think there would be some changes in subject matter, as in the return of the TV-14 RAW Zone, for example.

Now the guy she beat out for the nomination wants a primary. So they will face off in August and the voters will decide then which of them will get the party's nomination. Even though he said he wouldn't force a primary if he lost the nomination. What a flip flopper.
